The companies are already working on combining the products and add that the aim is to provide units with a mobile platform that can be configured for a specific task.

The Vepr UGV has been operating at the frontline since 2024. The drone was designed for logistics, evacuation and demining, and can also serve as a kamikaze robot.

The UGV’s payload capacity is 250 kg, and its speed with two electric motors is over 12 km/h. Its range is over 50 km. The drone supports six communication types, including LTE and Starlink.
